Jejune, the San Diego emo outfit that formed at Berklee College of Music in 1996, has signed with Ground Control Touring (GCT) for live music and touring representation. Agents Andrew Ellis and Gabe Sunshine will be steering the booking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The signing comes on the heels of Jejune’s high-profile reunion. Their catalogue was remastered and reissued by The Numero Group, which set the stage for the band’s return to the live circuit after more than two decades away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They kicked off their comeback with a secret show at The Ch\u00e9 Caf\u00e9 in California in January 2026, and followed it with a Japan tour alongside Ethel Meserve and The Album Leaf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the release front, Jejune dropped “Record City Afterworld” in February 2026 and “Grace (Wizard Glick Is Swimming)” in March 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GCT’s recent signing of Racecourse<\/a> and Good Flying Birds<\/a> underscores the agency’s continued appetite for left-of-center indie and emo-adjacent acts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andrew Ellis joined GCT’s New York office in 2023 from APA, bringing a roster that includes Manchester Orchestra<\/a>, New Found Glory<\/a>, Alkaline Trio<\/a>, and Thrice<\/a>, with Gabe Sunshine making the transition alongside him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ground Control Touring continues to grow its footprint, with a roster that spans Sonic Youth<\/a>, Kim Gordon<\/a>, Belle & Sebastian<\/a>, Deafheaven<\/a>, and Waxahatchee, alongside its newly launched festivals department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This signing is a strong signal that Jejune’s reunion is more than nostalgic, it’s a full-scale comeback with serious infrastructure behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pairing a legacy emo act with Ellis and Sunshine, two agents who specialize in the alt\/emo space, is a smart, genre-aligned move. GCT continues to position itself as a go-to home for indie and emo acts with loyal cult followings looking to scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will Jejune’s GCT deal lead to their first major U.S. headline tour since their 2000 breakup, and how big could it get? Could Jejune’s reunion and new material set the template for other dormant ’90s emo bands to follow?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
